house but probably 100 yards or so down the road where he is staying at the blair house. here's how the festivities will play out throughout the day. they did this morning, mr. trump and his family will head to a church service near by. after that, mr. trump and his wife will come to the white house and have tea with mr. and mrs. obama. after that, the 44th president of the united states and his successor will drive together to the capital for the initial inauguration ceremonies. we expect mr. trump will be sworn in as the 43rd president of the united states of america sometime around noon. throughout the afternoon there will be the non-turow paraded and at some point late afternoon before the dinner hour covered donald trump will walk into the white house here is the 45th president of the united states of america. and his family arrived in washington yesterday afternoon at the lincoln memorial during a concert there he had this message for his supporters and

the rest of the country. >> i want to thank you most importantly and i promise you that i will work so hard. we are going to get it turned around. we are going to bring our jobs back. we are not going to t otr countries take our jobs and longer. >> the festivities and celebrations will take place all throughout the day. there's also the political side of things we will be watching once mr. trump is sworn into office. >> he said he wants to get right to work. thank you so much. they permit the white house. we want to bring in former chairman of the house intelligence committee during no-space now. congressman, good to see you. thanks for joining us. a big day but a massive security day as well that we are all worried about.

>> is going to be an awesome day. a lot of controversy leading up today, but it's going to be a celebration. it is a great day for that most americans should be celebrating. >> people are just an odd this morning. even if you didn't vote for him, you have to feel proud as we watch this transfer of power. >> having sat on the platform and watching the person with the foot all, the nuclear codes, kind of take a step over at 12:00. it's like wow. president obama becomes who see in donald trump becomes the most powerful man in the world. it's an awesome experience to watch the next areas. >> we talked about the physical security, but what about possible cybersecurity threat? >> they are all a tear. we walked through three layers of security to get here this morning.

>> maria s. top security clearance. >> you walk through. there's always going to be physical attacks inside various aesthetics. over the last couple of years is always a vulnerability. who knows if somebody made it today. dagen: one of the gentleman who works in the building where we are right now remarked to me this morning, he growth in washington and said i've never seen this level of security, not even for president obama's inauguration in 2008 or four years ago as well. he said this is unpredented. >> it's unprecedented. it shows they are betty, have practiced this summer at both of the national conventions who thinks that the same thing. maria: they are overprepared and yet i feel like the stories of hacking and drive to our intelligence have never been

higher. >> the threat is amazing out there. you take a look at what is going on in the middle east. it's an ongoing threat everywhere and that will be one of the major challenges that donald trump is going to have to organize again in the first few months. obviously they've got to have some type of success today to take some of the shine off the base american experience. maria: the president-elect will carry 50 people from the obama administration. we were told to help for mental trump's team is in place. tell us about the work going on behind the scenes in terms of what goes on to the smooth transition. >> obviously lots of conversation. congressman pompeo has a close translation working relationship between director of the cia. brennan has that going on about the department's element purity, just to make sure you are moving.

think about it, not only changing 4,005,000 people, but the country is moving in a different direction. people three months ago were fighting each other in a campaign and now they've got to say you're in charge and we will help you do it. the indications are some hiccups, but when it comes to security issues, they've pretty much been seamless and the important thing is that the grassroots. the cop on the street, making sure nothing changes there. dagen: i want to add i'm not the fact the fifth the essential state department and national security staffers are studying the new york times wrote what i found to be incredibly negative article about the trump administration being behind the eight ball. not had their planning. 29 at six under 6016 executive department so far. and on inauguration day to write an article like that this sounds like what got into the granular

and turned it into a big name. >> the other part of this is the obstacle by democrats. he talked about my pompeo, that madison kelley we are far behind in the far behind in the sense of confirmation hearings that approval is good but are your thoughts on that? >> "the new york times" say, donald trump and his administration deal that they need some help, holly that he appeared for the obama people to say of course we will stay and make sure america is safe. that's something to celebrate, not criticized. dagen: there is a bridge between the outgoing and incoming president. that's where there's been overlapping obama talked about outside we've offered help and there it is. trade to the key is the media has just refusing to accept donald trump as the president. but there is a "new york times" or "washington post" or even cnn. some of this tori sites and are just appalling and in many cases not true.

>> the story about the kerry that he didn't understand the job he was accepting. the one source i'm not that often that. >> back to the factories this obstruction right now. sad that cabinet members were confirmed. three to ensure not only national security officials are pushed forward and confirmed quick we, but also the treasury secretary, commerce secretary makes the process easier because going through the transition process in 2004 is chaotic, takes a while to fill all these 4005 than they are going to need it. maria: its leadership. chuck schumer is calling it the swamp cabinet. >> the american people will be on donald trump side. sometime next week he will tweet out by his senate job working on the weekend? we need to get these cabinet secretaries in place that we can make america great again.

if they want to vet these people mark on the go ahead. they just work a little harder and geit done. dagen: president trump is going to name names, though. he's going to call people out by names. >> that the difference. the uncertainty around predictability of donald trump will keep people on their toes. >> you've worked with mike fontenot. but to expect in this new administration? >> my pompeo will bring it back to be an intelligence community and not political operation. i know john brennan. i knew him from the first time i had the underwear bomber flying into detroit. he comes at this from a political angle. my pompeo is going to say i'm doing nothing but getting great intelligent, building a great intelligence that were. i will present you with the information, mr. president. you and your team, but the policy that my job is to give you great information.

maria: this is an important point that they look of the intelligence community or department of justice or irs come in many agencies have been politicized. dagen: that are so right. the obama administration was driven in president obama was driven by social agenda and political agenda. not making people's lives better. that ultimately is like make people trust the irs again. maria: costin and refuse to step down. we know the irs targeted conservatives. if you don't pay you go to jail. so that's a scary thing for somebody. >> donald trump was not up her with the intelligence community. he was out for with their leadership which are political appointees. he will support the men and women in the field. >> you think they will politicize agencies?

>> it all comes from the top and yes they will. maria: good to see you. thanks for driven affair. the promises of ridesharing made to its drivers that is costing $20 million. bake in america great. welcoming president-elect trump to the white house with a new scented candle.ch be right back. in ourestmt experice around the world. call us or your advisor... t. rowe price. invest with confidence. with sleep number, there's an adjustment for that. tilt your tormentor and put those snores to sleep. does your bed do that? come into a sleep number store where the queen c4 mattress is now $1199. it's a no brainer.

and most dangerous drug trafficking organizations. expected to appear at a brooklyn federal courthouse today. also reporting mexico wanted to extradite before donald trump became president because a quote from the post doesn't trust the incoming administration. uber has agreed to pay $20 million to resolve charges that it misled drivers about how much they could earn. the federal trade commission saying drivers could make specific annual earnings but very few of them ever did. for example, transfer claimed the driver could earn $90,000 in europe are less than 10% of drivers ever made that much money. transfer will focus on ensuring it is the best option rather than looking to earn money on their own schedule. finally this, trump seemed merchandise has been selling like hotcakes is enough like hotcakes at him after the migration. one of the hotter items, the trump kindle sold my jd and cate

industries.com but trump's famous hair on top claims that will make america smell great again. it's supposedly smells like a combination of get this, steak and suntan lotion. maybe if they know tomorrow i'll go. another company selling donald trump socks. i could go on and on and maybe i will later the show but for now back to you in washing 10. maria: that candle is something else. preparing for a new president in the white house that the festivities and events planned so far. markets turn him over for the year. trump rallied running out as steam. a rollback of regulations from the new administration. but the downturn means for the beginning of the trump presidency at all straightahead live from washington. so what else is new? how's your mother?

anticipation of regulation more so than taxes. >> "wall street journal" editorial today titled the audacity of trump. they point out that every single policy decision coming out of this new white house needs to be scrubbed with growth. think everything has to be looked at, it is going to grow this country. >> dallas has priority to entire campaign and frankly that's the frankly that's the business people inside the last several years because this is an economy that is not wrote more than 3% under president obama. this is one of the very few administrations fantasy and economic growth above 3% of several years. >> we started to show talkg out how we bring this country together. president obama said we are not about america, not blue america. i think we agree in america when we feel the prosperity spread across the country, and think that's going to be where we

apply. maria: donald trump at a dinner last night and i was aaron bob kraft was there, owner of the new england patriots. trump praised the patriots do the patriots could listen to this. >> in the audience we have somebody under no pressure was whether because he's got a great quarterback named tom brady and a great coach and a great coach named fellow check. bob kraft. good luck. your friend tom just called. he feels good. he called to congratulate us. good luck. you're going to do great, thanks. >> the patriots, will they make it to the super bowl this year? i think you will see brady and i'm hoping to see a brady verse roger super bowl. two of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game to both had the opportunity to go through super bowl. both in late stages of their career. for america, this is a good time. i talk about it all the time.

coming up this morning, meanwhile markets look like this. the market is looking higher right now, dow industrial showing about 9 points, nasdaq composite sharing up 15 points, quarter a percent. dow industrial coming off the fifth straight losing session yesterday. it is now in the red for 2017, however, the rally since election night is still in place about 7%. in europe stoc are slightly higher, take a look, markets have reverse course in the last 20 minutes, we were looking at weakness earlier, europe as well as the u.s. in positive territory. donald trump's rise may seem straight out of hollywood movie. we are taking a look at top presidents in silver screen in honor of donald j. trump. many are protesting his inauguration across the country. peter barnes is live right now with that an frl the national mall. peter, good morning to you. >> hey, good morning, maria. that's right.

we are by the west front of the capitol getting ready for the events later today and the inaugural speech by the president elect who will then be president but there are a lot of activities going on outside of the mall perimeter including a lot of protest, we saw them here last night here in washington, d.c. to start out from the national press club in 14th street, a group of protrump people, trump supporters wanted to have their own party and they had a little fun with the word deplorable bles, the called it the deploraball, as they gathered they were heckled by protestors, some of them screaming at them nazi go home, scum, terrible, terrible things and there were some fires, one arrest. our colleague caught up one of the people who set one of those fires, a very young man.

listen. >> ayou are participating in this fire. >> i actually started the fire. >> why did you start the fire, carter? >> connor. >> why did you start the fire? >> because i felt like and i say -- >> okay, well, there you have it. maria: peter, thank you so much, peter barnes. the senate is expected to vote on two cabinet picks today. nominees retired marine corps general james ma his a joamland securit nominee john kelly. this coming after treasury pick steven mnuchin was grilled yesterday. it got pretty that's, listen. >> mr. trump suggested that he could somehow refinance or renegotiate our existing debt,

do you agree with his statements? >> the president has made it perfectly clear and i think perfectly clear that honoring the u.s. debt is the most important thing. >> let me be clear, i would like us to raise the debt ceiling rather than later. >> that's fair enough for me. >> would you agree that your boss is famous for firing people? >> well, he has a show about it but other than the show -- >> do you think -- well, sometimes it's a blurred line at this point. we are not sure where the show stops and where the reality begins, do you think he will hesitate to fire people if he disagrees with them or he believes they're doing a bad job? >> if they disagrees with him, no, i can tell you the president elect and i have disagreed on things, sometimes i've been able to convince him and sometimes i haven't and i haven't been fired .

maria: chairman and ceo harold. >> good to be with you. maria: how do you think he handled himself, first of all? >> first of all, i think steven is qualified for the job and overall he's going to do the best he can answering some hard questions and so -- maria: i don't know what it was. it had no substance. >> well, you know, obviously you have to let people go once in a while. it's unfortunate but not everybody performs. maria: do you think president trump will get picks as cabinet or some will be stalled. >> i think all -- maa: you think thell all be

confirmed? >> so i think that he'll achieve confirmation. maria: of course, you have been a great adviser to the president elect on energy and now rick perry is in the spotlight, the former governor of texas to lead the energy department as well. let's take a look. >> okay. >> my past statements made over five years ago about abolishing the department of energy do not reflect my current thinking. in fact, after being briefed on so many of the vital functions of department of energy i regret recommending its elimination. >> it's hard to see how we can pursue an all of the above strategy if some of the departments of all of the above capabilities are eliminated. my question is, do you support these cuts? yes or no? >> well, senator, maybe they'll have the same experience i had and forget that they said that, but -- [laughter] >> we are counting on you.

we are counting on you to educate the incoming president. maria: actually there were a few funny moments in the perry hearing actually, that was funny. do you think he will get confirmed and what do you want to see from the incoming secretary? >> they have a lot of people there to -- it's a big administration and those big agencies, it's full-time job, a lot of it, you know, a lot of people think it's strictly about oil and gas but certainly atomic energy is a big part of what they do. and, you know, there's -- i think he will do a very good job, as governor of texas, biggest energy-producing state in the nation and he's very well versed on what he needs to do. maria: given what you know and your vantage point running continental resources, can you give us a sense on where the

opportunities are? the president elect has said many times that he wants to tap into energy resources throughout america, how do you do that? >> well, first of all, you honor what's going on and that's the american energy renaissance and, you know, develop the largest gas building in the world, take advantage of all the oil resources that we have today, the balkin, permian, we are still finding new oil in this country and certainly can double production again, so we doubled it once, we can do it again. you have to let it go to do that and certainly without it we are feeding, you know, enemies in the middle east and others. maria: how significant is the oil patch throughout the country where you just mentioned

obviously the hot spots in terms of being a job creator? >> well, you know, we have added a million jobs during this energy renaissance and essential had to make drastic cutbacks last two years with what went on with opec and those jobs will come back and they have come back. they are coming back now, you know, as we go back to work and certainly, you know, these are high-paying jobs. you know, everybody thinks about a roughneck being out there, but we are talking about highly-skilled work, you know, to direct a bit down 2 miles to the right or left and develop these fields. these are high-paying jobs and certainly can do a great deal for americans, put us back to work. maria: if donald trump is effective in terms of putting us back to work via the oil sector, that would suggest that we will have a lot of oil in this

country, we will be a great oil producer in the world, doesn't that long-term, i know these are long-term contracts, doesn't that send oil prices lower long-term? >> well, you know, demand has gone up. we are about a hundred million barrels a day. close to right now, the last couple of years, you know, 1.6 million-barrels in 2015, 1.3 million-barrels of new oil last year and certainly we should deserve get our part of that, our share of that, so, yes, you know -- everybody looks at it, well, we could be, you know, one of the largest oil producers. we are. maria: with more oil, doesn't that send prices lower? >> well, we oversupplied the market just a little bit but it's caught up, you know, demand caught up with it and certainly, you know, we had opec members

that was flooding the market and brought in -- we cut back a million barrels and they added a million barrels and so did russia. maria: good to see you, harold hamm, ceo of continental's in he resources. stay with us, we will be right back we touch millions of lives every day. conduent. advancing the everyday.

maria: welcome back, well, we had a pretty good reversal of fortune in the markets, it's not much. but certainly we have seen the markets go from negative to positive. we are now expecting a fractionally firmer opening for the dow industrials, nasdaq certainly seemed a bit up about 13 points this morning and the dow jones industrial average is showing a fractional gain. we are watching shows of western credit union this morning. the company agree today pay 586 million-dollar fine for turning a blind eye as criminals used service. company admitted to aiding and abetting by allowing scammers to process transactions from 2004-2012. it is inauguration day and we are watching the sky and the weather to see what mother

can bring umbrellas as long as they are 18-inches or less and they are not the pointy you mean you mean -- umbrellas. the warmest was 55 which is great, also ronald reagan swearing inauguration. 1.77-inches. we will get no where near that. the most snow 9.8-inches. at least we are not talking about a blizzard or wash-out either. people need to be prepared, bring umbrella and ponchos and, of course, we will keep you up to date on the forecast. back to you. maria: up to date forecast janice, thank you so much. coming up as a new commander in chief prepares to head into the oval office, we are taking a look at some famous on-screen presidents, that's next. back in a minute

[laughter] >> they knocked out the first lady. >> more romantic, i think. maria: it's nice to see the movies because i never know if it's based on reality and what goes on in the film that happens in real life. dagen: game change which was on hbo was straight from the book, julian moore as sarah palin, primary colors was sort of about the clinton campaign but it's so

painful to watch because of john travolta playing bill bill clinton. >> written by an anonymous. dagen: i remember them trying to dance in the movie. they had no rhythm and it was hilarious. >> i met my husband at the white house. it was actually a very low man take story and it was 9/11. we were both at the white house when we left, running out and at that moment he realized he's like i need to mary this girl and we got married eight months later. maria: what a beautiful story. >> there you two. romance at the white house. >> depending on the president, they tend to sort of project their fears or hopes depending on the current and in the 90's a lot the portrayals and what bill clinton fell short and so it's going to be interesting how they portray a trump-like

president. maria: when we might see movie -- >> hollywood liberals are plan to go take over the white house. >> yes. [laughter] maria: maybe about the 68 democrats who are boycotting the inauguration.

and do what they want, free country but there is something sad about the fact that you have such vitriol still. i mean, the election is over. scott: folks here who are professional protestors, they come in with masks and want to cause trouble. those are the people that i'm more concerned about. do your thing, don't get in the face of other who is are here to enjoy themselves. my daughter saying last night, saying before bret michaels, my wife and my daughter walked outside the theater and it was total mayhem to the point where they felt nervous and they went back to the hotel. that's the type of stuff that's really inappropriate. maria: we are ushering the 45th president and we are seeing voter anxiety, he addressed this last night when he said he could feel something change during the last month of his campaign. watch this. >> the polls started going up, up but they didn't want to give us credit because they forgot

about a lot of us. on the campaign i called it the forgotten man and the forgotten woman, well, you're not forgotten anymore. that i can tell you. maria: what do you get from voters right now? do you see a sense of change that are people are more hopeful? >> absolutely. i see it not only traveling around the count are -- country or speaking to businesses or the irs are signaling or denying potential nonprofit status. you have the lowering of regulations, streamlining and console carty -- console and taking take. a lot of enthusiasm to say, okay, we are going to give the guy a chance and, in fact, it works we are going to go and hire and expand and the fact that a lot of companies have that green light to stay and

invest, have rule of law, have obviously a lot that goes with it, the great american workers, creativity, it's so critical and i'm very excited. dagen: president trump will focus on doing. a lot of hate aimed at his direction. people that are angry that he won in the first place. he has to focus not on that but delivering to promises to those voters he was talking about. >> he thrives on that hate, something that actually gets him motivated, i'm going to show them that they are wrong. >> they mocked him when he came down the escalator. also an opportunity for not just donald trump but gop. the department of education with

betsy behaves, what an opportunity to win over minority ifs that pick, you know, actually does what she says she's going to do and bring school choice to parents who are crying out for it. a lot of hope. maria: they gave her such a hard time. elizabeth warren trashing her because she's never taken out a student loan. >> they're the establishment and we can see right through it. scott: which party has kept the inner city down in they don't offer school choice, they don't allow for vouchers, basically people to -- to thrive academically, you know, the strong union support where i believe that is hurting individual students. maria: we have been to the train station a thousand times, it was so elegant. i was able to meet with the president elect, congratulate him, he was there with his entire family obviously and at

his table was speaker of the house, majority leader, it look today me like there was unity, scott. by the way, look at this picture that i took. that was caitlin jenner talking with the house speaker paul ryan, when i saw them together, i thought, i have to get a picture of this. there was kevin mccarthy, the majority leader from goldman sachs who has a big job now as well in the administration. >> as usual, what is the defining factor there. you look amazing as usual. [laughter] sct: i have obviously met caitlin in vegas. my wife, daughter and i had a great conversation. we were the first ones to actually walk over and she was a little bit, you know, like, okay, no one is saying hi. we went right over. we had 45 minutes of quality time, asked any and every question i wanted and it was a fascinating evening. maria: dagen remember what the new york post was reporting. dagen: some of trump advisers

were encouraging him to dance with caitlin jenner as one of the balls tonight which i think would be fantastic. >> do you think that would happen? >> i don't know. dagen: it just says because caitlin jenner has been lambasted by the left for her republican views and her quite frankly life-long devotion to the republican party and for caitlin to be here and if the president stepped up and danced with caitlin, i just think it says that -- it preaches tolerance and again show don't tell. i would love to see it. i don't know if it'll happen. >> i don't know if he's going to dance with somebody that's taller. caitlin is 6'4 with heels easy. maria: she went over to him and introduce herself and they had a

great shot and i said, i have to take a picture of this. >> this is coming together like we have never seen, paul ryan, caitlin jenner, great for you to take that picture. maria: they were at donald trump's table with their wives, not caitlin but paul ryan and his wife and kevin mccarthy and his wife. i thought, okay, there -- scott: right in the thick of things. maria: scott brown, always a pleasure. we will see you next hour. coming up, the president elect is still a few hours from taking office but the congratulations are pouring in already. message to trump from jerusalem mayor's ahead of inauguration and a little bit of history behind this historic inauguration. we are taking a look at the orof some of america's most cherish traditions, back in a minute introducing conduent.

the inauguration, of course. let's not forget that when trump's victory became apparent on election night markets traded off. six hours later they started -- they started going hire and they didn't look back for a long time and all they did was come on tv and pledge unity. maybe today we will hear more about unity, tax reform, tax cuts, things to support the economy, stimulus, infrastructure spending, that might be enough to get us out of the log jam and seek leadership in sectors of industrial that brought us here in here since november. we are in this little quagmire now. let's see if the speech can bring us out of it. maria: the dollar moved this week. rebounding. donald trump moved the dollar the other day. dagen: by talking about it. [laughter] dagen: i'm curious what michael

thinks about we saw yields of government debt move up yesterday and there was some suggestion that the highest on the tenure since early part of this month that maybe the inflation trade is back, not quite as high as the 2.6% that we have seen in the ten years since donald trump's win in november, but what do you make of that? >> a few thoughts here. the bond yields have gotten higher since november. janet yellen spoke on wednesday night and again last night and everyone is focused on the hawkish parts of her commentary where she said, we are in this where we are going to raise rates higher. i have seen getting better but janet is still worried about this and she also talked about some other factors that maybe we will keep the fed on hold here. all we are hearing about is the hawkish narrative. we are not getting the dovish

part of it. it's a lot more balance than given credit for. i'm bullish on credit here at least tactically. i think we could see some rally there in terms of stocks that could be good for utility sector which i will point in utility, production yesterday show that had the output from utilities was the highest since december '89. you have demand is going to go up too. let's not forget that. maria: all right, michael, thank you so much, michael block at rhino. what his last minute decisions will mean for the president elect first days in office. that's next. the transition of power from one president to the next. we are taking a look at inauguration day traditions coming up next. stay with us

laugh this morning on the roof of the chamber of commerce behind us is the white house, washington monument, jefferson memorial, donald trumps inauguration parade to have a different feel from its predecessors. we are watching the sunrise a highness and it's a beautiful shot. adam shapiro lifer in freedom plaza. he's got the details right now. good morning to you. reporter: good morning to you, maria. a beautiful morning as he watched the sunrise behind the capital. this is pennsylvania avenue. sometime around 10:30, the motorcade carrying president barack obama bacillus president-elect donald trump will have asked us to the capital. this afternoon this is the trade route donald trump will come to the white house. you can see people lining up, getting ready for that which won't begin until 3:00 p.m. this parade will be different than the parade we saw four years ago. it will have more of a tribute

to members of the armed services and military, roughly 50 of the different parade unit will be tied somehow to the u.s. armed forces and military men and women as well as about 10 different parade units which wille tied to border patrol and immigration organization. there were far fewer of those in 2009 when barack obama was inaugurated. there will also be fewer units within the parade itself. just about 82 during barack obama's inauguration parade in 2009. they were more than 100. that's pretty much the same here across pennsylvania avenue. the rain holding off. a lot of people happy about that so far. a glorious morning you can see the capital behind me and it's stunning. maria: it really is. i guess it depends where you're coming from. your shot is absolutely beautiful. adam shapiro, freedom plaza as president obama prepares to hand over the reins to donald trump. if fox news poll shows he's

leaving office on a high note. 57% of americans approve of the job performance of president obama. the glowing review comes from the health of the president's final controversial act in office. in the last 48 hours in office, president obama trance or former gitmo detainees commuted to sentences of 330 drug offenders and bob isis camps in libya. joining us now as u.s. ambassador to the united nations, john alton. ambassador, good to see you. let's break down this last-minute action because they got to get your take on it. the release of the gitmo transfers under president obama. your take. >> i think is just one final insult to americans concerned about the threat of international terrorism. donald trump now has an opportunity. remember, obama said he would close gitmo within one year

taking office and they failed to do it thank goodness. now we can fill it back up again with the terrorists will capture the battlefield against isis, al qaeda and others. this is not a war we saw, not that we want to give up so the terrorists, but to defend our country, that's what it's there for. the rate of return from the battlefield is tired that's only what we know. i suspect the real rate is much higher because many people disappeared. to release him if he goes out of office out of office they think is insulting. dagen: we knowhey've returned from battlefield with the recidivism rate as allegedly 30%. >> cap, absolutely. the point is these people drink it out committing terrorist acts that you shouldn't hold them forever. the geneva convention with the war can be held until the war is over and terrorism has a long way to go.

>> we know what countries in each case they are being sent to. and then they disappeared into the population in whose power they go after that. train to break in is because the first to not duration they tweets from president-elect trump comes in. and i'll begin today. i will see you at 11:00 a.m. for the swearing-in at the movement continues in the work begins. from donald trump a few minutes ago. how are you feeling on this is not duration? >> i feel great. a lot of people think the president-elect should not tweet afternoon today. the code is handled will be left behind at the white house. he kept his donald trump handle it treated in a personal capacity and an official capacity, that would be okay. maria: i don't think the media can take so many tweets. dagen: that's too much work. in terms of work, you were 10

administrations before, ambassador. this is a very long train that donald trump has support essentially. much more difficult than you might imagine it. there's an awful lot of work to know in many respects in the first 100 days of their flurry of activity repealing executive orders. i don't have any inside information. one prediction might be an amount that their embassy in israel will be nurtured in tel aviv to jerusalem. we will see for the inaugural address today which will be worse schematic is not a laundry list. the judgment is there's so my problems overcome when you don't wa to getripped up to try and do it in orderly fashion. >> at the cleanup job for the most part.

there's so many opportunities have missed for eight straight years. maria: it's an important point because the president has said he wants to make it as soon as a transition as possible. you almost feel like putting barriers in donald trump's way, the number is 1385. dagen: 1385 before. maria: 1385 publications for the last 48 hours. that's more than the 12 combined. >> maria, the obama border -- the number alone is shocking. dagen: they were sentenced to life in prison. dagen: mostly drug offenses. >> is rewriting the sentencing

guidelines. he doesn't have so he's been nice have so he's been nice part is changing a lot again. he's done it over and over. the worst thing he did in the past 10 weeks is up sitting singing on the boat and security council allowed a harmful resolution to go through in israel. that is something donald trump will find difficult because unless you get the resolution are first-come implications will flow forward. maria: confirmation hearings, confirmation hearings committee think everybody gets confirmed? >> i would say yes to haven't seen any republicans announced they would vote against nominees. few democrats. dagen: sharad brown said he is not voting for mnuchin. >> on the republican side, no objections. the safety they need to break the tie looked so far like that's been the case for each nominee. >> democrats has spent eight years supporting nominees. they've gotten off their game a little bit.

i expect to see the confirmation debates beginning today. dagen: the little menu showed that he is to get in the way of an individual's conversation i think this day and age but to what donald trump is able to do getting elected to the presidency and say whatever he wanted whenever you wanted to. a lot of those concerns like i employed one individual and i didn't know it was not here legally or a tax issue. i don't think this matters so much. >> they want to solve these nominees. it's either not pushing forward. expression was only moving on kelley and mattis, which is unfortunate. the president made to seem to get the ball rolling. democrats know most of the bureaucracies that federal government right in their direction. if it's the career people in charge per week, month, six months, that's fine from their point of view.

dagen: thank you so much. come, protest breaking out across the country this morning. just ahead of the not duration, what it means. something old in centennial at the inauguration day festivities. president-elect trump and vice president pansy is a very special bibles discern to their new roles. that's straight ahead, back in a moment. ♪ there's a lot of places you never want to see "$7.95."

griff jenkins now live on the ground here in d.c. good morning to you. >> hey, maria. good morning to you. a quiet and peaceful morning here behind me you see 150 to 200 protesters here at this location. we're at six in indiana. other spin you around. you can see the security check point, maria. they have a nonviolent direct action and this information are calling it a blockade protest action. what happened is about 25 or 30 people laid down in front of that checkpoint and refused to move. we're not sure if they are sort of detained or arrested. the group is actually called showing up for racial justice. they believe that an incoming trump administration will not be good for communities of color. they are just one of many groups and thus disrupt jay 20 group for each checkpoint we are told

to come back to nonviolent blockades. obviously security is not moving very quickly. they saw the act to this, identified them as soon as the activist sat down, they've had enough of that. although we did see last night, the protests with this jay 20 group which fight violence, some of the trump supporters were clashing with the protesters. we saw some people who were bleeding. there was pepper spray last night that i witnessed. a general clash and is certainly a little bit more of the disruptive, not the true first amendment protesting. that's an important part because we know there's protesters who will protest in the traditional form. we also know as ones like this one last night. we will keep an eye out here and bring it to you when it happens. maria: thanks so much.

official date of the not duration. >> that's right. it was in march and it's interesting to hear people talk about how trump kind of jumped the gun and got busy. it's always been that way. that's one of the reasons they moved it to january because so much work was done by the president-elect. they got contentious at times, so they moved it to january and you're out of the horse and buggy. >> wended a limited january? what was the day? >> let's see, it was fdr who moved it to january. train to the president is attending a morning church service this morning at 8:30. that is dating back to fdr's inauguration day. his attending service that made john's episcopal church, what other presidents have done that. >> that's right. that tradition began then, but it started at the very beginning. john adams was not inaugurated

in washington, but he moved into the white house. he attended that church in madison and monroe did. the first six presidents of the united states were episcopalians were official members of the church and the pastor a church. william bali is an amazing figure in history. he was like billy graham in his day. other presidents had to touch william hawley and he ended up in a little bit of scandal. but then, andrew jackson came to town. he was a presbyterian like donald trump. people thought the world we don't have an episcopalian president. but he also walked across the street and attended st. john's. >> what a beautiful tradition we have here they start to say that going to church. i think it's beautiful. >> let me ask you a question. there's always a comparison between andrew jackson and trump. do you find this limiter is? >> very much so.

they comparison. >> economic populism. fighting with congress. >> first six presidents were political aristocrats. they all came from virginia or massachusetts only. hot temper bullets in his bodies from tools. people said the world was going to land. >> the president out of office critical -- crucial to the inauguration ceremony. president-elect trump is using to bibles today. he's got his childhood bible and a very stylish but, by the way and also abraham lincoln's bible. >> that's right. rock obama was sworn in on that bible and abraham lincoln. that is very touching. maria: tell us about the bible looking at pictures of it. it looks so beautiful.

good friday morning everybody. think you so much for being with us. coming to you live from washington. it is friday january 20. your top stories right now at 8:00 a.m. on the east coast. the peaceful transfer of power.

today's inauguration will begin as president elect donald trump treating his excitement just in the last hour. i will see you at 11:00 a.m. for the swearing and the movement continues and the work begins. the present elect will make his weight from the blair house to saint john's church for a prayer service. he laid out a vision for the future of the presidency. >> we have an election coming up in two years. we will get a lot of senators and congressmen elected and working to make america great again. we will follow president elect donald trump's moves this morning and bring them to you life. also those who don't want a peaceful transition.

the latest between police and protesters. president-elect and his favorability market this morning look like this. futures indicating a better for the broader averages. the market is now negative let's take a look at the european markets. markets were mixed. it's up to thirds of 1%. nikkei average up a third of

a%. the gdp coming in at 6.8 percent. that was above expectations and helps the market there. giving a heartfelt update. will bring that to you coming up this morning. one washington dc bar goes a full on trial and error serving the a side of vladimir putin as well. mark mean a new administration today. while it is clear that donald trump will bring his on orthodox style new polls are showing divided yet optimistic country. 42 percent of americans view trump favorably. 60% of voters say it's everyone for themselves. senator, good to have you on the program. thank you so much for joining

us. what are your thoughts on that pole. i think the polls go up and down every day. the most important poll was the election. i think they believe president obama went too far with job killing regulations and high taxes and control of the economy. i think they want something different and we have anemic economic growth. we need to try to unleash the american job creation engine. one of the things you can see's repeal of quite a few regulations. maria: the future of obama care is certainly uncertain at this point. these polls show that 28 percent of registered voters think it should be expanded which is up 7% from july of 2015 and overall 50% of voters view favorably now.

how does that play into what is about to happen with obama care. >> some people have not been affected by obama care. if you have a group insurance plan maybe not so much affected by it. i think you find great dissatisfaction because the premiums have been going through the roof the insurance companies are losing hundreds of millions of dollars. so obama care is a disaster for anybody who is a small business person or an individual. what i had been promoting is that we should have a per replacement bill the same day on the same day that we repeal. isn't that where the details are really sketchy.

what he want to look like. we will introduce it in the senate next tuesday or wednesday it's already written it involves the ideas that the vast number of republicans we legalize the sale of all forms of insurance get rid of the obama care mandates. we allow people to save, expanded health savings accounts with some tax credits we let you by your insurance and pay your premiums through your health savings account. and then the final thing which may be the most important thing with the visuals come together and form an association to buy insurance there is a problem against small businesses and individuals owners there's no reason in the world while one individual should be an insurance pool of their own. you never buy anything that

way. we will let people come together and form an association and we will have associations that well have a hundred thousand people to reduce the prices as well. we will look forward to your introduction of that belt this coming tuesday. to talk about what is realistic overall. donald trump is that he's gonna get to work first thing in the morning if not later today. certainly monday morning. what do you think he will be doing right away. what should the priorities be. >> they should be getting rid of the job killing regulations that obama put in place. he went around congress and did so many things to executive order all of the terrible things that he did can be undone like that and i said expect that his neck in the sit around and rest on his

laurels. you'll see a dozen regulations repealed. the senate wants to do the same thing. were talking about meeting as often as we can through something called the congressional review act that allows for a majority vote. we want to unleash the american job engine and get government out of the way. in terms of those regulations that you think and president tramp will be able to reverse with his own pen and phone. where those regulations largely what kind of executive orders will we see reversed right away on monday. i think the most overbearing and numerous had come from the epa.

i can't wait to see scott pruitt approved. he will look with a very methodical and intelligent oversight of the regulatory atmosphe but i think you can see a lot of regulations that have gone too far and the main thing is the liberal left has already scared people there will be no rules. it has never been about the rules versus regulation. whether the regulation is so that they can't continue to operate. a baseline of lower regulations that are reasonable. you can get a big flurry of this on day one. let me get you to take a look at what we've seen the last two weeks in terms of the confirmation hearings. some of them quite nasty.

bernie sanders belittling in some ways as well. what was your take away in terms of these confirmation hearings that we've seen let's start working together. to try to get the jobs unlocked and get america working again. i've seen a lot of petulance in a lot of personal attacks. one senator is saying american is not a compassionate nation traveled the world and see how much better we have it here in our country versus india africa you name it america has an amazing ability to create wealth and we have done it for hundred years or more they are so out of touch and they're showing themselves to be out of touch with these remarks.

for example a lot of the things i scratch my had and said is essential to what the person is going to be doing. and then elizabeth warren asking backseat -- betsy devos has she ever taken out a student loan in a hostile tone. i think it has looked terrible. one senator asked todd price why have the gall to add -- to a tobacco stock. we can have to try to get beyond the election and really start looking for common ground it is can it take

democrats to vote for a replacement bill and right now i'm concerned that no democrats want anything to do with helping people get more insurance or healthcare there to speemac as a loss of do you think these pics will be confirmed. some of them will be confirmed i think there are a few reasonable democrats particularly those in states that he won by 40 points. they ought to think long and hard before being carte blanche no on his nominations. he's not afraid to go to their states and let them know what their senators are doing appear. i think he will show up in different states around the country and say we need a replacement and we need your senator to vote for it.

liberty mutual insurance. welcome back. we're looking right now at live pictures of anti- trump a protesters in dc. this is black lives matter. this group is chaining themselves offenses in frt of an interest checkpoint to the migration so that they can disrupt anybody going in and

they want to make sure to do their best to stop the inauguration as i mentioned it's black lives matter. they have chained themselves to the bars there they chained themselves up. that could be problematic. ted cruz right now. it's good to have you on the program. thank you very much for calling in. it's great to be with you. your thoughts on these protesters. but the group has chained themselves to make sure that they are in the way for anybody trying to get into the protest. i think it's unfortunate. a lot of elected democrats are angry at the american people

for the election results. i think that's unfortunate. the american people in november gave a very clear mandate for change that the obama, -- economy is not working. i think it's unfortunate to see those on the left who are just angry about that. should that be something that tells us of what's to come obviously americans want to see tax reform. they want to see that executed if there pushing back should be expected that there can and try to get in front of legislation and stop to stop it from happening? >> i think they will certainly try. with that being said we have

the opportunity in front of us to do an enormous amount of good. to be the most productive congress in decades. i think everyone of that cabinet nominees is gonna get confirmed through the senate. then i have the votes to do that. i think we are can confirm the entire cabinet and then i expect a the new administration is gonna move quite quickly on regulatory reform and lifted many of the burdens that are killing jobs that are humoring small business in congress we are going to repeal obama care. and we can do that without the democrats were also can confirm a strong conservative supreme court justice in this summer or fall it's our intention to use budget reconciliation to pass tax reform. to lessen the burden on job creation.

they may try to block it but they're not going to be able to with the votes. with the votes. wish you were with us. i want to thank you for your effort during the election. they are very appreciative now of how you are stepping back and taking it all in. the question i get regularly is what is ted's role what do you think you would like to play in your going to play in the senate right now to make this country great again. i'm very excited and energized about where we are. i think the opportunity that we have to dramatically reduce the burdens on job creation into spur economic growth and get is historic. what i told president trump the week after the election i

wanted to help lead the fight to actually do what we promise. we have republican control of the white house, we have to deliver and i excited to be able to let my sleeves and get to work with the new administration and work on turning this country around and bring it back jobs defending our freedom and keeping this country safe. as we watch these. what change some of the anger.

i think the anger can be confined to the far left into unfortunately some of those they may will be paid protesters in the far left the lesson they've taken is that they had been even more radicalized to help their other democrats to take a different message after eight years of the white house jamming down policies it was dictated by that working men and women. and the people who had just been hammered by the failed

economy and we need a congress that hears that message and respond accordingly. did you say you're expected to do tax reform in the fall of this year. and for those who had it spent time worrying about senate procedure generally speaking the democrats are able to filibuster legislation but there's an exception to that is called budget budget reconciliation. we are in we're in the mdle budget reconciliation right now we are using the we will use reconciliation to undo the damage of obama care will do a second budget reconciliation

later this summer. not be retroactive to the beginning of the year. the timing of when it would hit whether it's for 17 or 18 good to have you on the program we will look at the anti- trump protest right now they're trying desperately to stop people from moving in will bring you the very latest with the live pictures that are coming in. just like the people who own them, every business is different. but every one of those businesses will need legal help

here again is maria bartiromo was special with special coverage of the inauguration of donald j trump life in washington dc. welcome back. donald trump breaking news right now. he is headed to st. john's church for a prayer service to begin the day. this is live pictures right now as a is a president-elect is getting in his motorcade to go to the prayer service. donald trump as well as his family walking also in their car to go to the prayer

service. there is donald trump junior and his family all leaving right now in the motorcade to get in the car to go to the prayer service which expected to start very shortly. vice president-elect mik pence arriving their moments ago. he's looking for to put it has policy plans and action. donald trump spent the night at the blair house. there is a president-elect. this is a historic day. it was taking place today at noon time. will cover that pre- lie. president-elect trump departed about an hour ago. he is there now. this is a video of what we saw earlier. this is live a picture where

donald trump and the incoming first lady are in their car and ready to take off. president-elect donald trump will start the morning with that tradition. it dates back to president franklin d roosevelt. gary, over to you. for the last 200 years every man who has served as president has attended a service here and as you mentioned nearly every president has attended a prayer service here before taking the oath of office and it will continue today. president-elect trump is on his way here that service is getting set to get underway. in that sermon when god chooses a leader he planned to show how god blesses leaders using the story of the old

testament prophet nehemiah. it was him rebuilt fortified a giant wall around the city of jerusalem despite months opposition to do that at the time. the president-elect and his wife well have over to their new home for the traditional coffee or tea with the outgoing president. thanyou very much. we watch the motorcade of the president-elect getting ready to take off to st. john's church. as an elected trump and his family are the party right now. it will begin when he arrives. it is moving day. the staff are busy moving and the obama's out someone tweeted out a picture of the white house which they said was empty for the first time in eight years as the obama's

also left last night. thank you so much for joining us. take us behind the curtain a bit. what is moving day like. it's a hallmark by democracy all the sudden one minute so to speak everything is bear it's a true cleans late if a bottle of champagne and a note and i did from jim baker it's an important moment in our democracy. is the moment you pivot from governing from campaigning to governing. in your role. reince priebus coming in is donald trump's chief of staff

what will his first order of business be in his view. does the surroundings are different. president trump well always go to the st. john's service. if you think those who helped get you elected. one important thing president-elect trump and they've already achieved the national security briefing. the most sacred responsibility in the security of the american people that will be on their minds as well. the transition has gone well i think it's bn a positive transition. bill clinton and hillary clinton will attend today. has more than 60 democratic lawmakers will skip it. what signal are they sending about unity what signal are

they sending about unity i think they're sending the right positive signal. i think this underscores that the hallmark of any democracy is a peaceful transition of power. we have a pretty mean spirited campaign. i think president-elect trump well probably talk about that in his address. it will be a difficult day but you have to come to grips when you run for office when you step into that arena to put your heart over the bar but you have to prepared that you may not win. what are long-term our long-term ramifications for skipping the integration. do think it's a suggestion

what is that mean for actual legislation. are they can try their hardest to not allow president trump and his policies to get through. i think you have a very large majority in this country they want washington to work for them and their families and to make their lives better and i think there will be a strong negative reaction if president trump and his team are putting forward constructive proposals and not getting the right response members of congress have skipped inauguration before. it's a larger number. i think again in the important point great to have you.

president-elect trump and incoming first lady have arrived at st. john's church for this prayer service. as you can see their entering the church right now. the prayer service expected to be about an hour we know that president-elect trump is going to be sworn in as well as abraham lincoln's bible. in his oath of office. president-elect trump and melania trump just arriving there can have a senior counsel role for president-elect trump's advisers following that. right there with their family.

along with their children. the entire family coming right now live. entering st. john's church here church here in washington to begin the prayer service which of course is a tradition going back many years and there's tiffany trump. this of course has been a family affair throughout the campaign and is likely to be similar as president. it will take a short break.

president-elect donald trump and his family arriving at st. john's church.

they are weighing in. that's exactly how i see it. mister trump has the opportunity to be what he could be. he is going to transform the nature of government and its involvement in our lives. he is going to pick a very much business oriented cabinet the balance on the supreme court as well. he may have three in the four-year term. he has a chance to do that starting at noon today. let me get the penal to weigh

in on that. the minute he puts his he and on hand on the bible and takes the oath of office it's like oh my goodness. now had to govern as it was referenced. you get that moment it's a whole new world. i've always been fascinated it's a very unique thing in our constitutional republic. and this is the first inauguration where i am a citizen as a special thing for

me. giving you a high-five here. thank you so much. he wanted to i find it to not only be historic but that moment where you understand that america is so unique. that we really stand for freedom and democracy in the weather there is agreement or disagreement that we can come together and really experience it about empowering the individual letting you make decisions about your child's education your own healthcare and how to best spend your money that you worked so hard to do. it's about less government and more about the american spirit. it's about the process in our constitution and historical nature of what's happening

today. it's not about the democrats that are not showing up. and these protesters. the black lives matter individuals they had been affected in forcing the closure of one of the checkpoints. in fact they had caused the closure of one of the checkpoints getting into the neck ration. integration. making it as difficult as possible. the swing vote. they are performing for president-elect that islws something to watch. back in the moment. your insurance company
